Need some advice please.Just used BittyLicious for the first time using Pingit and think I made a mistake...when going through the payment I forgot to add the reference number.I'm currently sitting at the timer at 40 mins and take it the process wont go through as the reference number wasnt added in?What happens next, I raise a ticket and hopefully will get my coins?

I don't think anyone's simply lost their money, even when they've made mistakes or banks have let them down.

Make sure you use the support system in your trade to let the seller know that you might have made a mistake. I'm sure it will work out just fine.

In a nutshell, for most payment methods, sellers dictate the price. It's been very cheap recently though, and generally hovering around 3-4% above Bitstamp. I don't think you'll find many sellers in the UK willing to drop a lot below that, especially considering the costs in getting money into Bitstamp (currency conversion and bank fees). Bittylicious sets its own prices for credit/debit cards and cash/ZipZap though.

Thanks for the bug report. Really that's an old feature from when Bittylicious was invite only. We might remove that, or might do a "refer-a-friend- type setup.

As for wallets, there's a wide variety. Some people use their own wallets on their own PCs (Multibit for example) but many use web wallets like HolyTransaction, Blockchain and GreenAddress.

when are we able to buy again?Could not set up trade: Temporary error: {"status":"Maintenance"} Please try again later

This only affects certain card payments. If you are attempting to use a non-3D Secure enabled card, then I'm afraid it's still a case of waiting because this PSP is still waiting for their bank to implement something.
